hanno Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 While working on the fourteenth floor, some bricks I had to clear And to throw them down from off the top seemed quite a good idea But the gaffer wasn't very pleased, he was an awful sod He said I had to cart them down the ladder in me hod.

Berkshire Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Maybe the victim is a TV member who can shed light on this. All I get is he invites a complete stranger to his house and gets a brick in the face. I would hate to speculate.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malcoml Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Couple of Irish guys made front page of the Sydney paper here in Australia recently. They were brothers had a fight about nothing and one almost killed the other. I assume all the fighting takes place up there as there are no girls left in town as they have all taken off to Pattaya.

georgegeorgia Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) Have to admit last time I was up that way i also bumped into some drunken louts. Must be about 2011 where i went with a Thai friend up to udon thani and we went into this gorgeous irish pub restaurant..great food..just these 3 youngish guys in their 30's , i gathered they were locals..started making fun of my Thai friend because he looked feminine..they were drunk and we were eating up near the door..the staff knew them obviously. My friend knew what was going on and he was half their size but was ready for them..i wasnt ,i just didnt care for their loud immature remarks.
